Embodiment Construction

[0013] will now refer to Figures 1A to 8B To describe embodiments of the present technology, which generally relates to a system for tracking image and audio data over time to automatically identify a human body based on its voice-to-body correlation in a multi-user game or multimedia setting. In general, the system includes a capture device including one or more cameras for sensing objects such as people in a field of view, and a microphone array for sensing audio such as a person's voice. The camera can determine whether an object in the field of view is a person, and can also determine physical characteristics of the identified person, such as bone joint locations. The camera is also capable of determining the position of people in the field of view relative to each other and to the capture device. Microphone arrays are able to determine whether the sound heard is speech, and can distinguish between different speech from time to time. Microphones may also be capable of d...

Abstract

A system and method are disclosed for tracking image and audio data over time to automatically identify a person based on a correlation of their voice with their body in a multi-user game or multimedia setting.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system and method for associating speech with users in a multi-user application. Background technique [0002] Systems such as computer games and multimedia applications have evolved to the point where the systems are able to utilize user movements and verbal communications as input to the system. Such natural systems may be connected to multiple users, in which case a distinction between individuals is forced. Existing technology allows games or applications to identify users within the field of view through various mechanisms, including 3D depth cameras that can sense user characteristics such as size, facial features, clothing color, and so on. Speech recognition technologies also exist to identify perceived user speech through various mechanisms including microphone arrays. Traditionally, these two technologies have not been used cooperatively. It would be convincing to automatically match the user's voice to t...
